Old old old song. Written about someone I loved. One, if not the only one. This was written during my "John Mayer" phase as well - where every note he played I tried to copy. Very old recording as well. I can't even play it now... but I do like the song.
lyrics
She stole me at 14
A blindside to the knees
She didn't have nothing to say, but I love you
That's all I needed
She was my little love
Always kept me looking up
In a world only we shared
Where we could keep our dreams
And stay there
But, as time moves along and you realize something's wrong
All these things would soon be gone... gone
I've tried to always play it cool
My only exception's for you
I knew how much you loved my clumsiness to show on through
But it's all becoming clear
With the older we appear
We know less about the face of love
When I could move mountains if you'd like
Or sit with a book by my side
I would take you on a late-night drive
Keep them turning 'til sunrise
But if we happen to run into a situation
Where we could be more than friends
I'd only ask once and hope for an honest response
I know you'd choose the right one
I'm sorry for still holding on
You've let me know you're held with new arms
I can't let you go, but I'll surely leave you alone
But it's all becoming clear
With the older we appear
We know less about the face of love
When I could move mountains if you'd like
Or sit with a book by my side
I could change the course of my whole life
If it'd bring you back to my side
Cause even now I'll fantasize
About those cold and long Washougal nights
Locked up in linens of white
I didn't question the fruits of my life
